Economy added 73,000 jobs in July, as employers grapple with uncertainty

You are adding jobs in the PRIVATE sector, not government jobs which you are cutting.

Canada would probably love to have this result in a year let alone a month. Most of our jobs are government driven it seems.

Earlier I posted most of those jobs added were in healthcare. And usually during Republican rule a lot of "hospitality" jobs are supposedly added. Could be Mara Lago hires 1000 people just to boost the numbers? Who knows. Point is, they aren't high paying manufacturing jobs.
 
It can't get better...

President directs his team to fire Erika McEntarfer, the commissioner of the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, after meagre employment growth​


President Donald Trump on Friday called for Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner Dr. Erika McEntarfer to be fired, accusing the economic researcher of manipulating the jobs data for political purposes.

Trump provided zero evidence to support the accusation

May and June payrolls to show the U.S. added 258,000 fewer jobs than it originally tallied.

Instead of acknowledging that his economic policies might be responsible for the economic health that results, Trump attacked the economists.
 
Forgetting all the government jobs that were lost (thankfully).

And nearly all the job increase went to Americans.

And see 👇🏻

Trump's doing it too. Trying to hide the damage his tariffs are doing to our economy.

Remember he threatened Amazon when they said they were going to put TARIFFS next to every item they sell so people can see what they are paying and Trump lost it?
 
Look at this TDS bag of crap resinging from her do-nothing FED board job. Do nothing but TDS. Run back to Georgetown POS. When they keep interest rates high under Trump....while zero under Obiden...well, this kills the housing as no one can make the payments. Trickle down damage to goods and services. It is time.....quit stalling progress. In courts, FED, DC. Heads must roll.

Federal Reserve Governor Adriana Kugler announced Friday she is stepping down from her role at the central bank, creating an important vacancy at a time when President Donald Trump is pushing for lower interest rates.

In a letter addressed to Trump, Kugler did not state a reason for her decision to leave, only noting that she will be returning to Georgetown University as a professor in the fall.

“It has been an honor of a lifetime to serve on the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System,” Kugler wrote. “I am especially honored to have served during a critical time in achieving our dual mandate of bringing down prices and keeping a strong and resilient labor market.”

Kugler’s term was set to expire at the end of January 2026.

Her resignation now paves the way for Trump to put his own nominee in for the Board of Governors. Two of his prior appointments, Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, voted against the decision at Wednesday’s meeting to hold the Fed’s key rate steady, instead indicating they wanted to lower.
 
Anyone comment ad to why beef prices are going up up up? I know its not tariffs and it surely is the slave wage pay processors make. Time to up up their pay.

Increased regulations and lack of processing plant space.
 
This could be the effect of Trumps Tarriff policy. As costs increases on imports begins to affect an economy as prices increase for the importer who then passes it on to the consumer. Who pays the price for the tarriffs.

that is the true effect on raising tarriffs and why it is a contributor to inflaction and ultimately recessions
 
The July jobs report published Friday morning showed the US economy added 73,000 jobs last month, fewer than expected, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.2%.


Trumps response is to fire the commissioner and impose tarriffs.

Can anyone see where this is going. Oh yeah Trump fires people because of the low numbers.

yet he is the one who imposed the tarriffs.

Trump cannot be relelected even as he hints to congress to do away with term limits on the presidency.

The last six months of Biden’s presidency saw twice as many jobs added as the first six months of Trump’s second term.


So there is no controlling him and his impulses. The Trump effect.

add a ballroom to the white house while economy spirals out of control

Then he sugguests that if congress end term limits on the presidency, that he would be all for that

I am surprised the prices of beef go up with Donald putting in a patio AND a ballroom addition at the White House. I would have thought those things would lower price...

Jobs in state and federal government should not be added to the jobs reports....
 
15th post
SO...

Trump just fired the Commissioner of Labor Statistics. He didn't like the ******* numbers.

And now that person will be replaced with someone who won't annoy him.

DON'T REPORT BAD NEWS, OR ELSE.

This is true, literal authoritarianism.

Not working that hard. They had selective tariffs? very well hidden now by google to feed TDS.
Jesus Christ man. I do this for a living. The tariffs were publicly available and negotiated by Trump even though they’ve been the same since NAFTA. If you think there were meaningful tariffs on US goods other than a few specific sectors we negotiated with them you’re crazy.
 
Jobs in state and federal government should not be added to the jobs reports....
We didn’t lose 439,000 jobs that Trump said were there because of Federal and State worker changes. Trump overestimated jobs by a record amount so far this year.

We have added almost no new jobs which means no new incomes creating no new customers buying no new stuff or services. The GDP will tank with prices going up and jobs plummeting. Awesome sauce.
 
What constitutes a "job". If it pays less than $20 pet bennies it should not be included.
